The 29 Best Theater District Restaurants - New York - The Infatuation

"In 2019, All’Antico Vinaio popped up in NYC, and the lines made people seriously weigh the value of their time against the need for an Italian sandwich. A permanent location of this Florence import opened on 8th Ave, and it’s a great option for a quick bite before you head to a theater. The sandwiches—all on Tuscan schiacciata bread—are huge and most have creamy spreads that come in varieties like pistachio and ‘nduja. This place only has a few stools, so plan on eating on the sidewalk." - bryan kim, sonal shah, will hartman, molly fitzpatrick, ciera velarde, arden shore
